\[ \huge \dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{d}x} x^x \]

OpenStudy (goten77):

oh i got this

OpenStudy (goten77):

so to find the derivative we assume y=x^x

geerky42 (geerky42):

And?

OpenStudy (goten77):

let me this this out

OpenStudy (goten77):

we take the ln of each side and get ln(y) = ln(x^x) = x(lnx) but now we have to do implicit differentation and b4 i meant let me type*

OpenStudy (goten77):

after that we get

OpenStudy (goten77):

<.< im starting to get mad at how my cpu freezes then i gotta start over

OpenStudy (goten77):

|dw:1353911493327:dw| but then we have to multiple each side by the y part which we know is x^x and we get |dw:1353911592315:dw|
